From: Role of αENaC in root resorption of adjacent teeth due to entirely impacted mandibular third molars
The ERR of M2M was caused by the force that EIM3M exerted on the distal root of M2M. A The cone-beam tomography images of one selected participant were displayed by i-CATVision. B The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction model was created from the cone-beam tomography data. C Equivalent (von Mises) stress, unit: MPa. The area of high energy dissipation was observed in the contact region between the EIM3M and the M2M
